Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose Taif Eau de Parfum
This isn't your grandma's rose. Rose Taif is a polarising scent - some find it a gorgeous, comforting woody-rose, others find it too sharp and bitter. Definitely sample first before committing.
Statement
Our Verdict - Nerosa Eau de Parfum
Nerosa is a polarizing scent, with some hailing it as the 'best dark rose ever made' and others finding it too heavy and 'grandma musky'. It's a complex, woody-spicy rose that demands a test drive before committing.

Autumn Winter
